January 2012
Scrolling through my dash and everyone’s looking so pretty and festive in their New Years attire… and here I am, smiling like a cheeseball. I sure am loving this flannel I’d received from Michael’s family for Christmas though, so warm and comfy!
My brother just came over to me, grabbed the end of my braid and swung it around while simultaneously saying “I whip my...

You know your boyfriend cares when you reference a friend of yours on Tumblr and he says something like “oh, the one from blah blah blah that did blah blah blah? I liked that, too!”

we're on the top of the world, you and I
When I stay the night at Michael’s, come time to head up to bed I’m usually the first of the two of us to conk out. Because of Michael’s job, he’s adapted to that night owl schedule, and sometimes won’t go to sleep until 6, 7 am. Last night I must have been the first to shut my eyes. I say this because at one point I remember being awakened. It wasn’t a bad...

Michael: *tugging his rubber gloves tight* Look, I’m a surgeon. Me: *heading downstairs* Well good luck then, doctor. Don’t kill anybody. Michael: Hey, where’s my nurse going? Michael: *approximately one hour later* I need 3cc Windex, stat.

Bashful Brittany
Because I’m pretty reserved when it comes to my body (I was the girl in gym class always nervous to change in front of everyone else in the locker room), I cherish being able to be home and therefore free to prance about as nakey as I’d like in the comfort of my own room.

Anonymous asked: Aww babes. You are certainly Lovey! Not Nimrod. I like being Captain, much better than Stinky!

Speaking Popper terms, I’d say I’m Nimrod and Michael a two way tie between Captain and Lovey.
soundofsettling asked: Tag, you’re it! Here are the rules: Each tagged person must post ten things about themselves. You have to choose and tag ten people. Go to their blogs and tell them you tagged them.

"pickle!"
So Michael’s family sits me down Christmas Eve and explains to me a tradition they’ve held for about five years now, one they wanted me to partake in this year, too. His mom has this random pickle ornament that has no hook. After decorating their tree with an abundance of lights, ornaments, and garland, Michael’s mom hides this ornament deep within it’s branches. She...

she's too cute for words
*as Michael thanks Gram for her delectable homemade honeycrisp apple cake* Grams: “Take some home with you, take a huge hunk of it! A hunk for a hunk!”
After having received a Wii system for Christmas:
bro: “what’s your favorite color Britt?” me: “yellow, why?” bro: “no! mommy’s going to wear yellow, pick another” me: “fine, light blue” *a glance over at the television* me: “what? that’s me? you made me have pigtails?” bro: “yes! that’s how I imagine you!”

a painting I’d received from Michael’s older sister Amy, that she’d done herself… I couldn’t believe it! so pretty and thoughtful :)
heartfelt
I don’t remember exactly how old I was… I’m estimating around 12ish. I remember hopping off the bus and running home, excited about my birthday. I opened the door, ran up the stairs, turned the corner and on the dining room table was a pile of presents. Of everything on that table, I remember how excited I’d felt when I’d laid my eyes on this guy. My mom had one...
alexieileen asked: Thanks, dude! Jokes aside, I am truly happy about this fella. Every time I've ever been a jerk to him -- just when I think he's coming into the room to break up with me -- he always asked me how he can make me happy again. Who does that? But the thing is, I always want to make him happy when he's not, too. So I think the universe is right to allow this to happen. The ring, while...
so I've got Instagram and I'm one happy clam!

Happy Christmas Eve!
It may not appear so, but I’m actually about to leave for work this morning (note the name tag)! I guess to thank us for working on Christmas Eve, us employees are allowed to wear whatever we choose today :) It amazes me how much my wardrobe lacks in red, and even solid greens. Anyhoo, I went with this sweater because I’m in love with it.
One day ‘til Christmas, one day...

Help, quick!
So Santa may have brought the North Pole inside my home… or maybe my mom’s just paranoid about conserving heat and fluctuating settings. Her philosophy has always been just throw on more layers! Ah! Well I’ve already done so. I’ve got on sweatpants, a sweatshirt and a pair of long, thick socks. In an attempt to warm up even more, I’ve got water currently boiling and...
